I did the same thing as you... in my eyes 78K, Leather, Power Everthing GTS for $3500 is a damn STEAL. holy mother of god, $3500? how did i miss that? was it a salvage title or crack deal or something?  sorry for the thread jack, congrats on your upgrade - and to the op's defense, i'm looking for one myself. at least he didn't get a honda (sorry coomer). --------------------  do you know who i am, mr. worley? |

This car takes time to get used to and I am taking the advice of other 00 GT-S owners and not hi-revving or lifting before 2 clicks over on startup as far as waiting for the engine to warm up and treating it like a turbo. I love how this car rev's up like a sports bike and just releases and takes off...I will never own another car that is NOT Toyota.

When your VERY comfortable with the car and shifting, try landing lift from 1st-2nd. Takes alot of practice, you will need to slip the clutch some to achieve this. Shift late 8350 to be exact. The non stop surge of lift from 1st to 4th is fun...

Haha! I too bought a 7th gen, 2000 GTS 6 speed, leather. And holy **** your guys' cars are cheap!
I bought mine with 124,000Km's on it (77k Miles) for $13,500 Canadian(Which is DAMN cheap for us!)!  I havent changed my lift bolts yet either, and am not sure if the guy before me has. But once i see problems with lift I'l definately change it. It wont HURT it, it just wont let you engage lift therefore no fun past 6200 RPM's. --------------------  |

Its always advised to change it, New Version 3 Lift bolts are available at your local dealership. Broken bolts can cause further damage such as metal pieces going to who knows where in your engine..
I didn't need to worry mine since its a replacement engine =[ 03 Vibe according to carfax |
